“New” Tunes by Joey Ramone Unearthed

There’s no denying that Joey Ramone was one of the most important musical figures of the 20th century. His strange frame stood powerfully onstage, giving hope to all the ugly outcasts that they could someday do the same.

Culled from home demos and assembled posthumously by brother Mickey Leigh and Ed Stasium (producer and engineer on many a Ramones album), “…ya know?” manages to maintain a cohesive sound despite its disjointed source material.

Luke Jaxon of Alternative Press gives a detailed review of the new release. You can also hear track samples.
